Little League Mom...

LLM had a unique magical power. With just one swish of her steering wheel she can make cars in other lanes vanish. Even during rush hour.

Or... that's what she apparently thought at least. My BF pretty much had to swerve out of the lane, into the shoulder to avoid being hit.


Thankfully our turn was right ahead so we just stayed there to turn, and thankfully escape he... o crap. She's turning too. .... O well, we can escape her when we turn into the park... nope. And it looks like she again swerved without even looking at traffic.


At least she saw us well enough to stop just inside the park when my BF slammed his brakes.

And apparently a teen on a bike was also blessed with the same magical powers as LLM, and didn't bother checking traffic before attempting to do donuts in the lane. ... which is why my BF was slamming his brakes.




teh crazy - people had it on the road yesterday.

It's drivers (I refuse to call them 'people') like this that makes me want to mount a Semi air horn in my SUV. A nice loud blast from that and they'll pay a bit more attention. The anemic thing the car comes with is pathetic.

Trust me - they don't even notice 18 wheelers. As for a proper term for drivers like that (especially if they're in a subcompact), I call them "chrome scratchers" because of what would happen to my truck if they hit me.

As long as my daughter isn't in the truck, I'll let them hit me. It will be their fault, their insurance will pay, I'll either get a rental for a bit or just use our spare vehicle and MAYBE they will learn.

My grandfather's old car had a horn that sounded like the commuter rail trains around here at Boston. Everyone paid attention once he laid on that thing.

Our Blazer has an electronic air horn (along with the PA) and it can be fun to see people jump. It's the same type cops have, we just have to be careful not to hit the siren too.
